Cadillac Repair: Brakes, haynes manual, replacement pad


Question
Procedure to replace front brake pads on 2000 SLS.

Answer
Hi Wade, A good repair manual will give all the steps required and will do a better job explaining this and with pictures than I could. Get a Chilton or Haynes manual at the parts store or bigger book stores and you should be all set. Basically the only differance between your car and older disc brake models is how to work with the sensor wire in the brake pads and the need for torx bit sockets. Getting the pads from GM will eliminate the problem with the sensor however if you are carefull the sensor might be able to be transfered to the replacement pad. Bill
